I have been watching for milkweed to reappear in my garden. I usually have to replant a new plant every year. I wasn't quite sure if it really was milkweed but I pinched the leavf stem and latex poured forth. I am confident that milkweed has emerged in my garden.

My class also repotted 30 milkweed plants that we started in January, on Martin Luther King's birthday. We collected seeds from last year's plants. I stratified the seeds and started them in the grow lab with the children. Next week we should be able to transplant them outside.

We will wait for fall to see the glorious show of Monarchs once again!
